Quick take
A 12-fly assortment of bead head Prince nymphs in sizes 10-16 with a brass head that provides weight and attraction.
This Prince Nymph is tied on Mustad Signature hooks in a brass-bead version, with the bead adding weight to get the fly down near the bottom. The pattern was built to suggest the small creatures that drift along stream bottoms, which makes it a fit for anglers fishing nymph rigs below the surface. Each pack holds 12 flies in a hard plastic reusable case that keeps them organized in a fly box.

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
